"Led by former Toronto chef Sean MacDonald, this tiny restaurant in the heart of the touristy part of Santa Monica could be the best place to eat in the area thanks to its seasonal dishes cooked with a fine-dining level of precision. The Neapolitan-style pizzas could be perceived as polarizing: If you’re a fan of blistered puffy-crusted pies, then they’ll be your cup of tea. But the other parts of the menu are excellent, like the Aunty Wendy’s treviso salad or blistered maitake mushrooms, even if they carry a Santa Monica beach premium." - Eater Staff, Matthew Kang
